Tom, if not already a cut off item, then seersucker & white trousers should fall under the same rule. Added to the rule should be any patent leather accessory, including purses/handbags
Im a yankee but i have lived in NC since 1981. I wear winter white all year long. It is one of my best colors. Always get a lot of compliments. However i do remember getting white sandals as a sign of Spring and Summer. So exciting!
I’ve been out of the South for over 30 years, but I still have that rule ingrained into me.
In our neck of the Southern woods, the same rules also applied to patent shoes—only worn between Memorial Day and Labor Day. 😉
Same here, Susiebelle.
Doesn't a similar rule apply to white trousers and slacks? And seersucker?
Yes it does, Tom:-)
Thank you. I observe the protocol!

So ingrained in my upbringing, I can not abide by “winter white” clothing as well. It just isn’t right. ( Pearl clutch)

Pearl clutch indeed, sister. I'm the same way.
I an afraid i have been ignoring that rule for some time now and it is so liberating ! Lol
Not a thing wrong with liberation, Patsy! A lot of us are experiencing it lately. Enjoy your white shoes:-)
I wish I could get to that place. 😅
